Ensure stability and control of your Porsche 964, 993

The front arms known also as whisbones refer to the control arms or suspension arms that play an important role in maintaining the stability and control of the car’s front wheels. These components wear out due to regular use and exposure to different road conditions. Renewing or replacing the front control arms on your Porsche is part of maintenance that should be carried out when necessary to ensure the vehicle’s safety and performance.

Changing control arm bushings on your Porsche 964 or 993 is an important task for maintaining your car’s suspension system in top condition.

Renew or change 964 / 993 control arm bushings when the following symptoms appear:

Poor handling, noise, and reduced suspension performance
